Why COAL Is HIGH,

Recently published articles on the
scarcity and high price of coal have not
contained the correct explanations of the
matter" said gentleman yesterday,
who represents in this city no less than
twenty-One hard coal and five or six soft
coal collieries in Pennsylvania. .It is
neither caused by coal monopoly nor
by strike of miners. All our mines are
working, but at one time we had to shut
down to six and eight hours a day be-
cause we were running faster than the
coal could be taken away. The scarcity
and high price of coal in Boston is due
to several causes. Consumers did not
purchase their supplies this year as early
as usual, because prices had varied be-
tween spring and fall but slightly for
several years, and they had nothing to
gain, as they could see, by so doing. On
account of this the dealers could not clear
their sheds, and, having no place to put
coal, gave no orders. Meanwhile the
great West sent in its demand for coal,
which was supplied, of course. Nearly
all of the coal dump cars were sent West,
and when the East, particularly New
England, sent in its orders, there were
no cars to transport the coal to tide
water. - Boston Journal.

THANKSGIVING SERVICES.

services held in the Congregational

assisted i'm the service by Rev. DIR. White
of the Congregational church and Rev.
Mr.. Palmer, the Baptist pastor. Mr..
Thompson took as his text Proverbs xiv,
"a: righteousness eXalteth a nation,
but sin is reproach to any people," He
first spoke at some length of the bright
prospects of this nation, of the extent
and resources of the country and of the
character of the people, and then dwelt
upon the dangers threatening us, such as
the spread of anarchism, the traffic in
intoXicants, etc. 1t was an instructive
and suggestive discourse.
AT st. Stephens the rector, Rev. Mr..
Carpenter, preached from Deuteronomy

He contrasted the ways of a hundred
years ago with those of the present and
showed some of the improvements a cen
tury had brought. The sermon was full
of interest

THE RAILROAD SALE.

The sale of the Rutland railroad is likely
to affect this county quite as much as any
county on its line, but just how, it is too
early yet even to surmise. 1t is prob
able, however, that when the Delaware &
Hudson people take hold of their pur-
chase the Addison road will be of more
Importance than it is now and thus the
residents of that part of the county will
have more trains than at present. Here
in Middlebury there is little reason to
complain of the arrangements now in
force. Freight rates are as low, perhaps,
as could be expected where there is no
competition for freights; passenger
trains are sufficiently numerous, the cars
are good and the men who manage them
are courteous and obliging. Altogether
we have much to be thankful for in these
directions and little to hope for from a
change.

CONGRESS-.

The first session of the Fiftieth Con-
gress will begin on Monday. If all the
Senators elected are sworn in there will
be thirty-nine Republicans to thirty
seven Democrats. 1t is, however, charged
that there was bribery in the election of
Hearst of California and that a fraudu-
lently-constituted legislature chose Tur-
pie of Indiana. and there is likely to be
trouble over them. Both these men are
Democrats. The house will be composed
of 16S Democrats, l53 Republicans and
four Independents. 1t is not probable that
much work will be done before the holi-
day recess. All indications point to a
lively and lengthy contest this winter
over tariff matters. The best informed
persons are of the opinion, however, that
no material reductions will be made. The
fact is, there are so many interests in
volved that it is difficult to touch one
without affecting others, so that there
can be no concert of action.

COLLEGE GOVERNMENT.

President Bartlett of Dartmouth col
lege has forcible article in the current
issue of the Forum Oh college Distur-
bances". 1t is very clear from the tone
of the paper that the writer knows all
about his subject; hence his suggestions
should carry weight. He proposes two
remedies; first, the creation of IA different
spirit among the the students, and,
second, bringing offenders to justice, that
is, applying to them State and municipal
laws and Furnishing them in the same
way that those not students are punished
when they break the peace. or steal, or
destroy property.
All this is well enough so far as it
goes, but it seems to us that the dormitory
system is also largely responsible for the
evil. The effect of this system is to make
of the college little world of its own,
where actions are judged rather in the
light of tradition than in that of the NOR
ais of the outside world.

\ controlling interest in the Rutland
lngton to Bellows Falls, has been pur-
chased by the Delaware 4 Hudson Canal
Co., New York corporation. The Rut-
land road is now leased to the Central
Vermont, the lease of 20 years expiring
Jan. l, 1891. The purchase includes the
Addison road, which crosses the south
end of this county. OF the objects of the
purchase an exchange says: 1.-The OBJ
iects of this new acquisition to the ID. &
ii. system are two-fold. In the first place
it will enable the ID. 81 II. to place coal
at favorable rates in all the northern ter
ritory and to reach New England points
east of Bellows Falls, including points
on the Boston & Lowell and Concord
railroads. This opens a large New Eng
land territory especially for the Delaware
Il Hudson company and makes it IA more
powerful and influential road than ever
before. In the second place the control
of the Rutland railroad ends the Ver-
mont Central : competition for the New
York passenger traffic through to Mon
treal, as it takes l20 miles out of the mid
die of the Central Vermont system, and
will force that road to build connecting
link or abandon the field. The change
will also give the ID. & II. through
route to Boston from Montreal"
